What CompareTab says about Alcatel U5 vs vivo X500

vivo X500 has clear advantages in memory, battery capacity and display refresh rate over U5, with 12 GB of RAM versus 1 GB, 256 GB of storage versus 8 GB, a 7500 mAh battery versus 2050 mAh, and a 144 Hz display instead of 60 Hz. It also adds a higher-resolution rear camera (50 MP versus 5 MP), optical image stabilization on the main camera, an ultrawide rear camera, and 90W charging. Alcatel U5, however, is around $655 cheaper and lighter at 168 g versus 211 g. The choice comes down to X500’s extra RAM, storage, faster charging, battery capacity, and smoother display versus U5’s lower price and lighter build.
